^•P^HE life of every individual and ever}' institution naturally falls into
\f\j distinct periods. At the end of each of these it is equally natural
to review the achievements of the past, and to sum up the assets of
the present. The result of such a self-examination may be so great a
satisfaction in the past that all effort for the future is paralyzed, or it
may incite to still greater endeavor. This latter is what all hope and
expect from Simmons College, which last October ended the first ten years
of its existence.
While the college is to be congratulated upon all it has acquired, it
is well to remember that the chief assets of a college are not the visible land,
buildings, and equipment, but the scattered and invisible body of graduates.
Even now one year has gone of those whose work will be reviewed
at the end of the next decade. In that time great changes are sure to come
in economic, educational, and industrial life; — changes in which intelligent
women will prove more active than ever before. It is not too much to
expect Simmons women to have a very large part in bringing about the
best, results in all of these movements. At present there are over two
thousand Simmons women scattered over the country. These are daily
occupying positions of greater influence, as they prove themselves not
only well trained for technical work, but also "worthy of trust." Among
them are workers in public service and workers in their own homes; — all
women who help to form public opinion. On these, and on those who will
go out from the college during the coming years, is laid the duty of making
for Simmons each year, till 1922, the record of ten years PLUS.

This square is a memorial
to our Freshman Year, when we
had the scarlet fever, or rather,
the scarlet fever had us. We did
not have any Freshman frolic,
but we had a vacation. Every-
thing wasn't as bright and cheery
as this memorial would indicate;
its fiery appearance rather sug-
gests the way we looked and felt
when we were obliged to attend
college late in June on account of
our fever vacation.

At last, a degree! All the things
we haven't wanted are gone, and what
we have looked forward to for four
years has come. The only trouble we
have is that we can't think, whether
we are glad or sorry to go, but if
only you, the other classes, are sorry,
we shall be glad you are — and that
will make us sorry.

Pretty dress, ah yes!
Silken tail to trail;
Dainty feet, so fleet,
Nice low neck!
Such short sleeves!
In spite of all
The lady grieves.
Evening fair, quite rare,
Perfect bowers of flowers:
Violins tune, then croon,
Ready all,
Gloves and fan,
All on time —
Except the Man.

#oob=b£>, Jfrom 1913
Dear Alma Mater, when you gave us tasks
— Too hard, it seemed, to compass in the day.
Blindly, though understanding not, we said,
"We will obey."
Through all the years we've tried to give to you
Our loyal best, and now we can but say,
"Our hopes are granted, if your stamp upon our brow
We bear away."
Good by, then, Alma Mater, oh, good-by,
We cannot know all you have been to us, to-day,
But you have made us Women, and as such, please God,
We shall repay.

The number of students in our college has increased so rapidly during
the last few years that the Guild, as it existed before, could no longer serve
the purpose for which it was organized. In accordance with the new con-
stitution, which was drawn up and accepted by the classes last spring,
every student in college is still a member of the Guild, but the organization
is different. The government is now vested in a Council, composed of the
president and vice-president of each class, and one representative from
each of the other college organizations. It is hoped that by including such
representatives the Council members may have as broad and far-sighted
knowledge of conditions as possible, and that whatever action is taken
will be taken with a complete understanding of its relation to the college
as a whole. The Council meets regularly to discuss any questions which
may arise concerning either new activities or traditions already established.
Among other things which the Council is doing, and one which will
perhaps do more than any other in strengthening the spirit of fellowship
and loyalty among the girls is the effort which is being made to raise an
endowment fund for the college. A committee has been appointed and
is already at work making plans which we hope will meet the approval
and earnest co-operation of every Simmons girl.
In accordance with the constitution the chairman of the Guild Council,
and the president of the Dormitory Student Government Association, were
sent as delegates to the annual conference of the Women's Inter-collegiate
Association for Student Government, which was held this year at Wells
College. The program was not only interesting, but it afforded an ex-
cellent opportunity to hear discussed the ways in which other colleges
were meeting just such problems as we need to solve here. The Guild,,
under the new form of organization is an important factor in the college,,
and we hope to see it meet with the greatest success.
Marie W. Gurdy.

The Student Government Association of the Simmons College dormi-
tories was started in Simmons Hall on St. Botolph Street in 1905, but was
not formally organized until May, 1906. Since then it has been steadily
growing in importance. The governing body is a Council, the members
of which are a Senior President, a Vice-President, who is Chairman of the
Guild Council, a Junior Secretary, a Sophomore Treasurer, a House Chair-
man from each house, including Mrs. Blackley's in Brookline, and four
Representatives from Peterborough House. On each floor in the halls
and in each of the small houses are proctors. This year a new plan is
being worked out of electing new proctors every six weeks instead of for
the whole year.
Council meetings have been held once a month. Frequent floor
meetings and house meetings have also been held to keep up interest among
the girls. Short talks have been given us at times by Miss Arnold, as
well as an after-dinner talk by Miss Kingsbury, followed by an informal
meeting with the girls in North Hall. Miss Diall also gave us a few helpful
suggestions at an informal meeting after dinner in South Hall.
The store in the basement of North Hall has been run very success-
fully this year by Miss Goddard.
A piano was rented for the dining-room this year, so that we now have
a piano always ready for use.
Our most important social events are four large parties a year: the
Reception for new students, a Hallowe'en party, a Christmas party, and
a Washington's Birthday celebration. All students living in colonies in
Brookline are invited to these parties as well as those belonging to the main
group of the dormitories. We are hoping as soon as it is possible to have
all of these colonies become members of the Student Government Association-

The Young Women's Christian Association was organized at Simmons
College in May, 1912, under the direction of Miss Katy Boyd George,
the Boston Students' secretary. Officers were elected at that time, but
regular meetings were not held until school opened in September.
From the first, the time for holding the meetings has been every
Tuesday at 4.30 p.m. The first and third Tuesdays of every month. Room
114 of the college building has been used, and the meetings have consisted
of a course of lectures by such men as Dean Hodges, of the Episcopal
Theological School, of Cambridge. On the second and fourth Tuesdays
regular devotional meetings have been held in Students' Room of the
college building, with leaders from the faculty and student body.
When a canvas of students was made in the fall, about two hundred
of the girls became members, and it is hoped that by next year this number
will not only be increased, but that the association will have a regular
place in the life of the student body.
Susan K. Brown.

Simmon* College &tj)lettc Association
Marion Donaldson, '13, President Mildred Libby, '15, Secretary
Helen Anderson, '14, Vice-President Harriett Putnam, '15, Treasurer
In our Freshman year, the nearest approach to an athletic associa-
tion that Simmons offered was the gymnasium in the new wing. With
the gymnasium, however, plans began to appear for an association to
guard and guide the tennis tournament, basket ball games and whatever
other activities might arise in the athletic line, until, in 1911, these plans
matured and the Simmons Athletic Association was firmly established.
The Association has made a sure advance, although it may have
seemed to move forward slowly. Each year more girls come out for the
different sports. We are looking forward now to our third annual out-
door track meet. If the competitors for track honors, and the spectators
continue to increase in number and in enthusiasm, Simmons will soon
have to engage a larger field for the events of Track Day.
Now is the time when we really need the support and co-operation of
every girl in the college. Simmons has grown in loyalty and in college
spirit since the S. A. A. was established, but more girls ought to be a part
of this Association. If you are not already one of us, join now, for we want
your support.
Marion Donaldson.

At a meeting held in June, 1912, the Simmons College Mandolin Club
elected Miss Estelle Freeman leader. On account of illness Miss Freeman
did not return when college opened, and Miss Anita Q. Clark was elected
to take her place. Miss Katherine Fall was chosen manager. Contrary
to the custom of previous years, the membership of the club was not limited
to girls who play mandolins or violins, but was thrown open to all who play
stringed instruments. The club assisted at the Senior play, and a number
of the girls played at the Christmas party of the Instructors' Club.

Choir
Bessie Jost, '15, Manager Elizabeth Day, '13, Secretary-Treasurer
The choir has this year been regularly organized with officers and a
constitution.
It consists of both choirs of forty voices, which sing on alternate
chapel days, thus having a membership of eighty. The choir sings special
anthems on Christmas, Easter, and Baccalaureate Sunday. When both
choir and Glee Club sing together they are called the "Choral Society."
All members of the Glee Club must also be members of the choir, but not
all choir members can belong to the Glee Club. The choir has also a wait-
ing list, and membership is limited.

Under the new Council System in effect this year, the Glee Club,
Mandolin Club, and choir have united to form one large body, which is
known as the Simmons Musical Association. Its president sits with the
Council and represents all the musical organizations at the Council meet-
ings.
The purpose of the formation of the Association was to simplify the
affairs of the three organizations and to arrange later, perhaps, for a common
treasury.

The custom of holding a short religious service every other Sunday
evening in the dormitories was started in 1909, and has been maintained
each succeeding year. This year the Vesper services have been held in
North Hall, and have been in charge of Miss Margaret Niles, Miss Joy
K. Mauck, and Miss Ellen H. Daniels. There is no doubt but that this
is one of the precedents which has been wisely established and which will
come to mean more and more to the girls and to the college life.

1914 still holds the basketball cup as a result of the final victory
in 1911, because there were no final games played off in the spring of 1912,
through default and on account of weather conditions. This year all
match games are to be played off before Easter vacation, to avoid a repeti-
tion of last year's trouble.

The meet was won by the class of 1912, with a score of thirty-one
points; 1913 was second with eighteen points; and 1915 was third with
six points.
After the meet the Senior Class was presented, by Miss Arnold, with
the track cup, and Miss Jessie Blanchard received the individual cup for
the high jump, given for the holding of the high jump record for two years
in succession. The individual cup was a gift from Miss Diall, and the
track cup is presented by Miss Craig of the Secretarial Department, to
be possessed each year by the winning class. Miss Glenna True, '12, had
the largest individual score of twenty points, winning first place in four
events. The shot put was a new event last year, but proved so successful
that is has been incorporated as a part of the regular field day program.

The Students' Room is for the use of the students, except on first and
third Tuesdays after 4.20. Then we do not know what happens. '
The present and future students should be very grateful to the Alumna
Association for furnishing and decorating this Students' Room. The
Class of 1906 had its share, likewise, in giving a beautiful picture of Santa
Barbara, and ladies of the corporation have donated several valuable
pieces of furniture.
It is almost a pleasure to study in such attractive, comfortable sur-
roundings! The room lends itself for social purposes as well. The Monday
teas are held here, and also class affairs and larger gatherings.

The Senior Class undertook as its class play, Mrs. Burton Harrison's
■dramatization of Lewis Carroll's classic, "Alice in Wonderland," and gave
two successful performances on December 7. This was one of the first
efforts at dramatics in Simmons, and won the heartiest possible support
•of the class and the college. We feel that the fun and enthusiasm which the
play afforded was well worth the two weeks' determined work previous
to the play, and merits the institution of Senior Dramatics as a custom.
"Alice in Wonderland" is an escape from the world of fact into one
where buns grow on bushes, and a grin without a cat is an ordinary oc-
currence.
You feel that you have wandered into a wild masquerade where every-
body is on a mental holiday. You are certain that the Cheshire Cat is a
lawyer on a lark: witness his mathematical, lawyer-like questions. You
are convinced that the White Rabbit is a gentleman of leisure: witness
his general air of good breeding, and his white gloves. Indeed, every one
of these creatures is in holiday-mood for a good time. Alice, the ordinary
•child, receives to her ordinary questions just the mad kind of answers that
mad creatures would naturally give. The whole book is question and
answer with the queer twists and turns that have delighted us from child-
hood up.

Audience and actors were in full sympathy and plunged hand-in-hand
into the midst of the merry adventures. The cast were well chosen, and
took their parts with zest and enthusiasm. Faith Elliott was an amiable
and charming Alice, who looked and played her part to perfection. She had
just enough of the naive to be engaging, and just enough of the childlike
to be captivating. She was at her best in that ridiculous song, "Soup
of the Evening," which she sang in a modest, school-girl manner that took
the audience by storm. Our friend, the Hatter, was admirably portrayed
by Edith Parsons, who showed that she had made a study of the role and
thoroughly appreciated its humor.
The dance of Blanche McDuff, as the Gryphon, and Marian Buttrick,
as the Mock Turtle, was a gloriously grotesque thing of the most engaging
awkwardness and astonishing spontaneity. The other parts were ably
and enthusiastically filled, and the actors made the performance a constant
charm and surprise from beginning to end. And the moral of that is:
All of us were very sorry when the curtain finally fell on "Alice in Wonder-
land."
The committee in charge of the play was as follows:
Lillie M. Peck, Chairman
Jeanette Burke Helen McIntyre
Olive Diall Elizabeth Thurston

?|aUotoe'en
A shriek, a hiss, a wail, a groan,
A hundred gather near;
A howl, a snarl, a scream, a moan,
A ghostly sight is here!
Around the flaming cauldron bright
They kneel and bow and dance,
Upon the watching figures near
Their lighted lanterns glance.
But soon their ranks begin to close,
They sing, they cheer, they shout;
And all the college knows at once
It's nineteen fifteen out.

From all Junior candidates trying out for literary work on the Micro-
cosm for next year, the 1913 Board demanded sample editorials, among
which were submitted the following:
SUGGESTION TO I. M.'S
A conveniently situated Prom agency would be a most popular in-
stitution. This lucrative opening should appeal to I. M.'s who wish to
engage in a beneficial enterprise.
A NEW SHOCK-ABSORBER
The Society for the Propogalists of more Painless Flunking has de-
creed that the term marks shall be send to the parents and not, as formerly,
be mercilessly issued to the students. Physicians agree that the old
system was hard on the nerves of the students, and the present method of
breaking it gently will be beneficial to the dispositions of all concerned.
The Cosmopolitan stairs are to be furnished for those especially de-
sirous of reducing, others are expected to use the elevators.
GOOD MANNERS AND GOOD FORM
In the Class Room
Enter late and look highly amused if the class is started.
Carry on side conversations, except when arguing with the instructor.
Yawn as often as possible.
Watch the clock if it is behind you.
In the Lunch Room
Use the elbow motion as much as possible.
Aid your digestion by dawdling over your food, while you watch the
other people looking for seats.
Exercise the vocal chords, trying for a high soprano effect.
In the Dormitory
"Sh," everybody all the time.
Wear the middy-blouse, sleeves rolled up, for dinner.
Be as late to meals as you conveniently can.
Never fail to talk shop at every opportunity.
In Chapel
Rush in directly ahead of the choir and take a senior's seat.
Stare at the soloist, if there is one.
Bustle out before the last hymn is over.
Be sure to criticize the service at great length.

Don't let it ruffle your stately mein,

When feeling like this one is sure to pull a credit in
shorthand and typewriting.
This feeling helps one to write an interesting paper
upon the Political Development of Europe between 927
and 1451.
It is well to feel like this after finishing examinations,
so that one may start the new semester brilliantly.
One should feel in this way in order to bully along to a
successful conclusion a puzzling case in Commercial Law.
Such a feeling is a great comfort when endeavoring to
make a good impression on reviewing one's examination note-
book in conference.
THE TIE THAT BINDS
Student. "Well, I — er — can't discuss that, because it enters into
physiology, and I — er — I — "
Instructor. "Yes, yes; that's all right. / don't know anything about
physiology either."
IT DID
Instructor. "Now this is essentially a Woman's Problem. It may
seem funny to you when I announce the subject: 'The Homeless Man.'
Somehow or other we can't feel heavenly in Economics 3, although
we know there is religion in the course, for we are taught that banknotes
should be in "convenient denominations," and that one of their requisites
is "confidence in redemption."

HOW A FRESHMAN LOVED HER GYM.
Farmer Jones met Farmer Brown,
They were both on their way to town;
"Say," said Jones, "what do you know?
My gal, Betty, ain't half so slow.
"You know she's gone to Simmons College,
Seeking for scientific knowledge;
And Brown, would you believe it true?
She's fell in love; now what to do?
"She's writ her mother and me a letter,
And said she liked him better and better
Than any one she'd met afore,
Tho' wife and me favored Sam McGore.
"Now of course we're willin' she'd make her choice,
But if it was Sam we'd both rejoice,
For never was there a better feller,
And many a time I've tried to tell her.
"But Betty seems to think this one
Is quite the best, and full of fun.
I'll read what she said in her very last letter,
And then you will understand it better.
" 'Dear pa, I like the place still more
Than when I wrote to you before;
But Gym. I like the best of all,
Gym. doesn't let a moment loll.
" 'Such hours of fun as we do spend,
We dance and fence and yell, 'Defend!'
I can't deny, oh dearest pa,
That I love Gym. now do tell ma.'
"Now, Brown," said Jones, "what would you do
If your gal writ that letter to you?
I don't know nothin' about this Gym,
But what she's said 's in favor of him."
"Wal," said Brown, "I'll tell you, Jones,
I don't want to be a 'meddly-bones,'
But from her letter here's what I'd say,
She's sure in love — let her choose her way."

No. 1
The farmer has been through with the protection as against the com-
petition of similar products merited from true adequate, as well as honor
markets. Its proposition assumes that our productions are ignorance
and histology. It is not it. From smokes individual you great stuffers
of agriculture from Number! What farmer have so in our markets?
Grain, white, or its home and foreign country are protectors as well re-
membered and with the world. Their claim of production for the home
stomachs, which is some (elevator) and a virtue in the trucks of pro-
tection fate. What the farmer, and as well as he has been for years, and
is now, the confusion to pay taxes off left! They used to tell the tariff
that they will. So psychology, by the Wilson bill, that one into fact,
influenced cost and wonderful basket action for four. To do that, claims
benefit, since a high protection tariff, and in the midst of the most. The
wonderful prosperity that have a pesky world argument has been proved
to be facts. Papers are only with cans of fools and bankruptcy. Again,
I see, it is not it. (Wield apples and elevator.)
No. 2
The joys of a vacation decade, preparation for it, the atonement of
deficient senses, and the belling of a courter is quite as difficult a problem
as the bill of a house. Fate forever sits down with pencil and pauper.
We export information, and cancel a planting and worrying career, and
deliver a life problem scientifically, as they would toil with the problem of
delivering a hose, taking the advice of an archdeacon to operate them.
Unknown people do not allow drifted unity, but some loon of a workman
buys chance proximity or unformed selection to the high per cent then
inefficient and which surprised all monied employers in their work. Force
to the cost it entails in employment and expense, waste of training a low-
grade surface air, duly bareheaded to the haphazard way in which inane
men and women drift. In the wise joys of a vacation, there are three boys
and educators. The more light one can bring to appear on the problem,
the more bitter it will be for the coolness and strength of the concussions.
Right at the end, the prominent valve of the result is buttoned.
Instructor (apologizing for calling a girl by an incorrect name). "You
will pardon me, but I find it will take a long time for me to get used to your
faces."
Angry voice in the rear. "What's the matter with our faces ! "

PRACTICAL PROBLEMS
1. Given: a white card from the office. Find the "earliest oppor-
tunity."
2. A girl can walk f of a mile to college in 8 minutes, but it takes
3 times as long to walk the same distance from college. At what rate can
she walk across the dump?
3. A father gave his daughter #60 to last from January until spring
vacation. On February 3 there was $ .03 of the money still remaining.
State fully the nature of the father's remarks.
4. At what time between 11.20 and 12.25 do the hands of a clock
appear to cease moving?
5. Knowing that each girl called up for five-weeks' marks possesses
a certain density, estimate roughly her specific gravity when informed of
her F's.
6. Given: a vacant period in the rest room. Find a vacant cot.

FRESH MM Ni<l/HflRE
We had a little lunch last night,
There was not much to eat;
And every girl felt duty bound
To leave her plate quite neat.
No time was wasted getting rid
Of tea and coffee strong,
Shrimp wiggle, olives, fudge, and cake,
Of pickles, loud and long;
Of maple sugar, real "hot dogs,"
And salmon, nicely creamed,
Apples, jelly, cookies, nuts —
And when I slept, I dreamed.
I dreamed I went with bows and frills
To join the cooking class,
Where Dr. Kin-sb-ry smiled, and gave
My first attempt a "pass."
Then into Business Methods, I
With greatest haste did walk,
And "Quick Despatch, the Minute Saved,
Was Dr. Br-ck-tt's talk.

Soon Dr. D-w-ing came to give
A little spelling quiz,
And Thaddeus lectured to us, on
"The Life that Really Is."
Then Dr. El-r-dge taught the way
In which to featherstitch, —
We took our notes in German,
Italian, French, and sich.
MacLachlan testified upon
"The way to help the needy,"
But by that time I'd grown, I fear,
To feel a trifle seedy.
But Dr. T-ler came along,
And jovially did shout,
"Just join my Gym. class, I will make
You well and strong and stout!"
That ended all my classes up,
I hated to be through,
And when I reached the B. Board, I
Was feeling rather blue,
But there I found a note that said,
"Go home and take a rest,
A month must be the shortest time,
Six weeks — or eight — the best."
I dashed the teardrops from my eyes,
And quickly tore the note,
For Woods was waiting at the door
To hand me hat and coat.
But what I heard outside the door
My gloomy thoughts dispelled,
For "Votes for Women! Votes for Women!"
Mr. R-be yelled.
Just as I paused to say "Good-by,"
I gave an awful scream,
And then in bed, I found, alas,
'Twas all an idle dream.

How dear to his heart is the shelf in his locker
His jam and his crackers, his comb, and all that;
His mirror, his new book, his proof sheets, his great
coat,
And e'en the fat pickles he keeps near his hat.
The big, fat green pickles, the nice sour pickles,
The pickles he keeps in a cute little jar;
They told us he ate them, and we were dumb-founded,
But now we believe — since we know where they are.

THE FRESHA4AN MOVES ONE TO PITY
I got into a trolley car, — ■
My daily morning stunt, —
And I was greeted with the words,
"Fares, please. Say, MOVE up front!"
I rushed at college, down the hall
To leave a book for Thad.
I knew I'd have to walk four flights
If he had gone. — He had.
I went to cram some history
Lest I be called upon.
The library was chock block fuil, —
I had to journey on.
From there I tried the hall settee,
And laughed some with a friend
Until a JUNIOR came along
And said the thing must end.
Then wearily I seized my books
And sat upon the stair;
A Senior said, "Get up; it does
Not look well to sit there."
Quite tired out, I climbed the stairs,
Despairing at my lot.
And sought the Rest Room — last resort, —
There was no vacant cot.
I knew that Student's room was full,
I had to wander round,
I went on tiptoe through the halls —
I dared not make a sound.
But now at last I've found a place
Where I can be a Queen;
I sit and study at mv ease, —
I wait to see the Dean.

THE LEGEND OF EVIL
This is the sorrowful story
Told when a Freshman fails,
And the students walk together
Telling each other tales.
"The Freshmen came from a High School,
Foolish children were they,
They thought that here at the College
There was nothing to do but play.
"The Freshmen skipped from their classes,
The Freshmen went out to tea,
The Freshmen omitted Chapel
And also their history.
"Then came the awful instructors,
Nothing of play they knew,
Only — they caught the Freshmen
And flunked a lot of them too!
"Now, we speak of the Freshmen
With sighs and a silent tear,
We know not where they have vanished,
Only — they are not here."
This is the horrible story
Told when a Freshman fails,
And the students walk together
Telling each other tales.

Don't smile when the Seniors get out of step. They do it only for
variation.
When reading magazines, it is courteous to refrain from turning the

If you do not understand what the speaker is saying, at least cultivate
an intelligent expression. (If possible.)

"iHilestonts"
We here offer an announcement of the play, "Milestones," which has
been presented every June for the last six years, and is to appear again
in a short three months. The pamphlet account here reproduced, contains
the last scene in the four-act play, the scenes of each separate act of which
are set for certain points in the period of life represented at that stage,
known respectively as, First Five Weeks, Second Five Weeks, Mid-Years,
etc., to Finals.
FROM THE PRESS
A play which for the last decade has created a sensation in the thinking
world because of its remarkable boldness and entire novelty. A striking
contrast in its industrial intricacies to the staged routine of the academic
circle and the homely household tasks. It passes in rapid survey the
conquering ideals of the last decade, and gives in the closing scene here
quoted the picture of educational felicity arrived at after the progressive
clashes with the generous audacities of Fresh Sophs, the blaze ennui of
Pop Juns, and the assurance of Safe Seniors.
The whole four-act play has been called a satire, and it has been called
a comedy, in some instances it has been thought to verge upon tragedy;
it is no one exclusively, for it clings too closely to life. The urgency of
youth to possess what it has claimed, the ferment and struggle for liberation
and self-control, the inevitable tendency for the Freshmen of to-day to
become the Senior of to-morrow — these are the thoughts which give
vitality.
A collaboration which has been pronounced unique as a piece of un-
precedented innovation, it is scoring one of the most conspicuous successes
of the present century in Educational United States.

The Scene represents the driving-room of an edifice in Fensington Lore. The
building is comparatively new just now — all the decorations, pictures and furni-
ture are of the mid- Victorious period. On the front, five high windows look out on
Fensington Dumps. At the rear, two narrow doors lead to the back-driving-rooms,
various locations of which are approached through dark corridors and immaculate
156
mimo msmm i
stairways which show signs of wear, due to the traffic resulting from the constant
consideration of problems in human elevation by means of Laws of Survival of the
Fittest. In the center a large altar, around which the members of the Family are
drawn in puckered worries.
During the entire scene the two doors are closed; the curtains are not drawn and
the windows are kept judiciously busy, because of the instant need for fresh supplies
of nourishing ozone. The lamps are lighted to shed rays upon the darkness about
the altar.
From time to time carefully prepared cartoons of Human Probabilities, statis-
tically digested and graphically presented in sweeping physical curves are hung upon
the walls. These offer refreshment to the smouldering votaries of the second row,
whose lamps are constantly in danger of being altogether extinguished in the heavy
atmosphere of the sacrificial altar.
The normal decorations and furnishings preserve the air of young aloofness
according to Alumnae & Company's well-known design.
It is about half-past nine in the morning of the eleventh of June, 1913.
(Mrs. Mater Fundus, fondly called Alma, a woman of over ten seasons' Re-
cords, is sitting on the grand settle at one end of the room; she has about her various
possibilities of industry intended for the Vocational Rose's improvement; but
progress has been temporarily interrupted because of the Mater's intense interest
in the discussion of the fate of Rose's grandchild, who has become an Honourable
Self-governing Body. Near her in a wicker armchair sits John Fundus, the elder
whose generosity made it possible for the Mater to be an Alma. He is an old man
dressed in the fashion of a forgotten era. He is constantly murmuring "trades,"
and "self-support," and now and then vainly endeavours to communicate to the
living-dead Family that They are all off.)
John F. (The ghost): This is no place for me, dear Mater; home was never
like this, and it was for home I did it. However, I must be patient and try to
stretch my comprehension of this strange new world. John was ever wise; I'll
listen to him kindly.
Mrs. Mater F.: Yea, dear John, they are all our children by birth or adoption,
even the Honourable grandchild whom I do dearly love in spite of all the quaking
gives my poor old heart. Old only in years, however, for my spirit is ever young and
tries to fit its protection to the ever-changing dangers of each generation. But
they do all look most fearsome grave, I trust no harm is to be done the child for her
folly.
John F. (alive) : The Family will please wake to order. We must come to the
final business of the hour. We will hear from the Committee on Curves with regard
to Muriel's present probabilities.
Sam C. (For the Committee): Mr. Promoter, the committee has found that
the Honourable person under consideration has in her career out-curved all Human
157
W I ERmmEMWW' ill
Probabilities and unless the Family puts forth most strenuous efforts there is only
one certainty in view — that the C's will undoubtedly become F's.
John F. (ghost): Listen, dear Mater, what do they mean by C's and F's?
Mrs. Mater F.: Seas of trouble, dear John, and Futures condemned. You do
not recognize it in this form and have never realized that Future. Let us hold
thought for our Honourable Child.
John F. (alive) : Please explain by an axiomatic equation.
Sam C: Why, Mr. Promoter, if x = Disregard of advice and y = Ignorance
in subsidiary courses, it naturally follows (to my mind) that C's must become F's.
Gertrude K.: But, Mr. Promoter, when Muriel found herself deficient in
subsidiary material she petitioned most earnestly to be drilled and examined as often
as possible, particularly upon the words and rules upon which she already had been
examined. This seems to me to show a most praise-worthy spirit on the part of the
Honourable Child.
Sam C: Mr. Promoter, nevertheless, I feel, that other things being equal, the
C's should become F's.
A Webster: Mr. Promoter, she has three times permitted the water (I should
say, in deference to the theoretical department, the H2O) to disappear from the
vegetables at inauspicious moments and has not yet presented a completely whole
loaf.
A. Thompson: Mr. Promoter, she constantly refuses to wear her Bibs. Sav-
ing your presence, Sir.
Nancy C: I see no reason for permitting such negligence to meet with any
undue leniency on the part of the administration. Indeed, I know it to be a fact
that she has by no means yet rounded out her work on the High Cost of Living, and
as for the Minimum Wage — she knows absolutely nothing about what a small
salary she should expect, for her first undertaking, at least.
Gertrude K.: However, we must admit that she showed a most wise sense of
the fitness of candidates in her recent record at the Polls.
Richard C.: Right, as usual — and I can add information in her favor, also.
Not once during her four year course has she permitted her breakage of chemistry
glassware to exceed, to a disparaging degree, the amount deposited by her parents
in the Family coffers.
Sam C.: But considering the most noteworthy fact that countless others have
not even encroached upon a similar fee held in their names in these same vaults, it
seems to me that this action on Muriel's part is not particularly worthy of any
especial praise, or perhaps even of comment.
Gertrude K.: If we are working upon a basis of comparison, which it would
most deeply grieve me to suspect we were doing, Muriel, in this respect only, per-
haps, would stand in thevery pleasant, and, to some, enviable place of number three
on a graded scale of 0-5. But, since Muriel is an individual, we must consider her
158
IMEMBSMMM
case as an individual case, and eliminate all reports concerning what Marjorie,
Helen, or Josephine may or may not have done under similar circumstances.
Sam C: But, if Marjorie's, Helen's or Josephine's records bear directly upon
Muriel's case, and may, perhaps, from their very analogy, bring us to a .
Gertrude K.: No exigency can arise in which one student's records are suffi-
cient for a decision on another's. Conditions are constantly changing, and at
different periods so must our views become more liberal, to accord with the general
view of the new progressive world.
Richard: Let us endeavor to expound a few very tangible and creditable
facts in Muriel's record, which will very evidently be of great value in deciding our
course of action in her case.
Firstly: she has a remarkable faculty for the appearance of attentiveness, and,
at times, of most engrossed and intense interest.
John F. (The ghost) : Dear Mater, what are we come to, when they count
deceit not as a vice, but laud it as a virtue?
Mrs. Mater F.: Hush, John, we know not the ways of to-day. Let us rejoice
that our grandchild can brave her times without serious detriment to hereditary
ideals which we have given her.
Richard (continues) : Secondly, observe her at the weekly exercises held
most fittingly in yonder church — there is no doubt but that she sings well and
loudly. Can you not see that she strives always to give of the best that she can?
The cooking department holds records which show most plainly that she has seven.
times essayed to produce a perfect Parker House Roll. Is such willingness of
spirit to go unnoticed? When informed of her failures, she has very cheerfully
prepared at once for another attempt. Is such sensibility and earnest effort to be
passed over as undeserving of comment?
Gertrude K.: You are right, Richard Conservatus, and we must consider
Muriel's fundamental and innate qualities which would be of value to an employer,
before we pass judgment upon her office records alone.
Sam. C: The C's should become F's. I maintain still that the case remains as
it was at the beginning and that the C's should become F's.
Richard C.: I protest, I am sure that ■.
Gertrude K.: Since we have, then, practically decided that Muriel possesses
native cleverness, and that her personal qualities would be of substantial benefit
to any employer, let us complete our session by allowing the C's to remain C's and
permit her to receive the Honored Certificate and depart in peace.
John F. (The ghost): Listen, Mater. What do they say? It is beyond
my understanding, and I cannot bring myself to approve of the records of Muriel.
Mrs. Mater F.: Dear John, she is your grandchild and they are judging her
for her real worth as a woman in the world. It is the way in which all judging
should be done — have I not always said it?
159
John F.: Ah, that's because you're pleasant. I've said it before and I say it
again.
The women of to-day aren't what women used to be. They're hard, they've
none of the old charm. Unsexed — ■ that's what they are — unsexed. (Muriel
enters quickly from the hall in a rich blue and gold cloak.) She pauses smiling,
then hurries delicately across to her grandfather and embraces him; releases him,
shyly takes a rose from her bosom, drops it into his hand, turns and gives her Mater
a smile, whispering — "I am going out but not away. I shall always come back.
They're waiting for me," and hurries out again.
John F. (ghost) (looking at the flower) : We live and learn.
Mater: Yes, John.
The organ is heard playing a triumphal march and the Family and Votaries
arise to form the procession.

FOR THE FINE
WORK HE HAS

WE ARE YOUNG, MOTHER SIMMONS
"We are young, Mother Simmons,"
The Freshman said;
"And we work all the day and the night,
And yet you incessantly give us more work,
Do you think, in our youth, it is right?"
"I have tried," Mother Simmons
Replied to her child,
"To instill common sense in your brain,
And though I am sometimes convinced you have none,
Yet I try it again and again."
"We are young," said the child,
"And the physics too hard,
For any poor Freshman to do it,
Yet you finish us up with the German and French,
Pray, how can we ever get through it?"
Then quoth Mother Simmons:
"Just plan out your work;
That is one vital thing you must learn.
If you don't, and yet manage somehow to get through,
Pray, WHAT do you think you could earn?"
"But we're young," said the child,
"And we didn't suppose
That our days would be crammed full as this,
We had thought that college would be heaps of fun,
But it's far from our notion of bliss."
"I have heard all you said,"
Mother Simmons replied;
"And I know that perhaps it is true,
But yet, all my daughters who leave me, 'make good';
And that is the best I can do."

without a seam to spoil the curves and irritate

The Burson Machines fit as they knit, combin-

hand-knitting.
The various sizes — of leg as well as foot — make

"I'm Not Much of a Cook, Hubby,"
"but here's what I did with Jell-O. Could any cook make anything finer than that, and
won't that hit the spot?"
Of course no cook could make anything finer. The "beauty of it" is that women
who cannot cook can make as good desserts as the besl cook, for
doesn't have to be cooked. The young housekeeper who must
prepare the meals herself and uses Jell-O, is saved much experiment-
ing at the expense of her husband's digestion and good nature.
She is always sure of a good dessert for him anyway.
In purity and wholesomeness Jell-O is as near perfection as
science and skill can make it, and nothing else so surely hits the spot
in the appetite that is pleading to be hit.
There are seven Jell-O flavors : Strawberry, Raspberry,
Lemon, Orange, Cherry, Peach, Chocolate.

Whither away my Simmons maid,
I am going to Hatch's sir she sayed
And why " to there " do you choose to go
Because she said " It's a lovely show "
And there is not a shop in all creation
Where the goods and prices are such a temptation.
The things I see are things I can buy
For they suit my purse as well as my eye \
So to Hatch's she wended her blithesome way
As we trust that you will next shopping day.
Our dainty hand embroidered Mandarin Ccats for Negligee and Opera wear,
and exclusive line of waists made from our own imported goods, combined with
Chinese embroideries are enough to delight any one who might be the receiver
of any one of these things.
May we have the pleasure of showing you these goods?
